“Had 2 rear tires fail within the first 5000 miles. The first at 3900 miles developed a blister on the sidewall and went flat. The second at about 300 miles later developed a slow leak that could not be fixed”

NHTSA complaint #11267938, filed 2019-10, 3,900 miles

“The contact owns a 2019 Ford Ranger. The contact stated that while the vehicle was at the dealer for a tire rotation, the contact was informed that the tires were unable to be rebalanced due to swollen lug nuts. The vehicle was then taken to Goodyear, who was also unable to rotate the tires. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.”

NHTSA complaint #11673996, filed 2025-07, 106,000 miles

“2019 Ford Ranger purchased nov. 2019 has 18,00 miles. Tires wearing out on inside front tires. Brought to dealer for alignment, but they were busy, took it to nearby shop and they aligned it, but said it was not that out of alignment. They checked the tires and stated that all 4 tires were separated.”

NHTSA complaint #11348622, filed 2020-08

“The spare tire is held tight against the under body of the pickup bed with a chain crank. The gear mechanism that raises and lowers the tire slowly released the tire to the point that edge of the tire (presumably due to bumps in the road) contacted the pavement. The tire became almost vertical and at a right angle to the direction of the vehicle. An estimated 4 miles was drive before the driver became aware of the problem when an observant motorcyclist motioned the vehicle over. The tire was very hot where it contacted the pavement but had not yet ignited. …”
